Introduction to Qweb3

Hello friends, I am Qweb3.

In this web3 world, there is so much knowledge about Blockchain, Cryptography, Smart contracts, NFT, Metaverse & Many more interesting topic to be gathered.

It seems like everyone is talking about Web3, NFTs, Crypto and the Metaverse; and if your company isn’t, then you’re probably wondering, “Are we missing out?”

Well, at Qweb3 we have decided to help companies dip their toes into this new world of blockchain technology in a comfortable, Web2-ish way. Our engagement suite has always had tokenization capabilities and our ethos has always been based around community and interactivity; so it only made sense for us to expand into the Web3 space through NFTs. Our goal is to democratize the use of NFTs to incentivize larger audiences and to increase the value of NFTs over time through utility while complementing existing engagement efforts. But before chiming into what Qweb3 can enable, it's important to understand the ins and outs of Web3 and to ask the right questions.

Why is Everyone Talking About Web3?

Supposedly a new and improved version of the Internet, Web3 is the third generation of web technology and presents an evolved alternative to Web2.
Unlike its predecessor, Web3 aims to be:

• Decentralized - Ownership is shared amongst creators and users
• Permission-less - Open to everyone equally
• Trustless - Reduced reliance on third-party companies

The idea is to give people more control over their data, and enable users to do business and exchange value over the Internet without the involvement of a middle man. This is, of course, very different from what we experience today with Web2, which is siloed, centralized, and largely in the hands of big corporations. Web3 has the potential to change many aspects in many different areas of digital exchange including ownership, governance, finance, identity, and payments. It comes with its own set of new technologies (blockchain, Non-Fungible Tokens) and a lexical field (DAO, Token, Protocol, Layer, Proof-Of-, etc.) that needs to be mastered. It is therefore not surprising that Web3 has gained worldwide attention; and while some of that attention is based on fear or aversion, there are many benefits for businesses who are willing to learn more about the Web3 tech stack.

The Most Pressing Web3 Aspects

• Web3 Authentication – Web2 already got us used to signing up with different websites and mobile applications. However, while many Web2 apps can be used without signing up, Web3 is a bit different. Without authenticating users, there’s no way for them to interact with the blockchain. Fortunately, Moralis offers you to authenticate with MetaMask and WalletConnect integrations. As such, you get to offer user-friendly solutions to both web and mobile users. In addition, Moralis enables you to further boost Web3 user onboarding success by implementing Web3 authentication via email or offering Web3 social login.  

• Decentralized File Storing – With IPFS integration, Moralis offers you to upload files to IPFS. Moreover, to save time, you can even upload folders to IPFS. The latter is extremely practical when you want to bulk mint NFTs.

• Index the Blockchain – Once you create your free Moralis account and a Moralis server, you access your Moralis dashboard and Moralis’ “sync” feature. The combination of these two tools is all you need to sync and index smart contract events.   

Diving Into Web3 Even Deeper

The basics of Web3, JavaScript proficiency, ability to use MetaMask, and the power of Moralis are enough to get into Web3. With this toolset, you can do way more than just dabble in Web3 development. You can produce some phenomenal dApps. However, as you take on more extensive projects, you’ll encounter the need to work with smart contracts more closely. Moreover, since EVM-supported blockchains cover quite a range, learning Solidity may be the next logical step. Also, by making the most out of OpenZeppelin and Remix, Solidity basics can get you quite far. In addition, there are some other excellent tools you ought to get the hang of as you advance your blockchain development game. These are Truffle and Ganache, which are both components of the Truffle Suite ecosystem. All these tools will help you become a blockchain developer with quite a skillset.

How to Get Into Web3 in 2024 – Summary

At this point, you have all the information you need to become a Web3 developer in 2022. You know that you must start with the Web3 basics and commit to ongoing blockchain education. Fortunately, there are countless free and paid options at your disposal. Furthermore, you’ve also learned that the best programming languages to focus on are JavaScript and TypeScript. Moreover, you now understand how to get into Web3 with JS and MetaMask. Nonetheless, you’ve also had a chance to discover what shortcuts Moralis offers.
